If you ever wondered where the line in Seinfeld came from when Elaine says, "The dingo ate my baby," it came from a woman named Lindy Chamberlain, in Australia. Meryl Streep also took a turn playing Lindy in A Cry In The Dark. Thirty years ago, Lindy said that her nine week old girl was taken by a dingo. The coroner believed her but the public didn't and somehow Lindy ended up sentenced to life in jail for murder back in 1982. In 1986, she was re-tried and acquitted after a jacket was found inside a dingo's den that had belonged to their daughter. Now, the coroner has officially listed the cause of death as death by dingo.
